Having a look at the website of the Finnish League (www.veikkausliiga.fi), I found a section that refers to the number of people in stadiums during the 2013 championship. Such information, quite detailed, broken down several facts such as, for example, the attendance of the stadiums of the different teams (both when they play at home, and the public who come to see them when they act in visitors), the matches withmajor and minor attendance, etc...Interestingly, in my point of view as we left several notes:The first is the low attendance at the football stadiums, especially when compared to the big European leagues .. Just to indicate that the match with the highest number so far this season was the one who played HJK - IFK Helsinki with a total of 7128 spectators.The second one is that HJK is the team that brings more fans from home and away, with the statistics presented, in seven of the ten most-watched games this season.The third one is the difference between the match with more spectators (7128 spectators) and the match with less spectator, which was played between Honka - IFK, gathered only 632 spectators, really low figure if we speak of the highest national category.The fourth one is the team with less attendance to their stadium (as average) is IFK Mariehamn; that gets at their stadium around 1377 spectators per match.In fact, alwaysaccording to the detailed report Veikkausliiga, my conclusion is Veikkausliiga is a championship with half-empty stadiums , which as I have seen myself, could develop several initiatives to try to improve the situation .. for instance, a league match in Kuopio usually costs between 15 and 20 euros. Different solutions would be, lowering the price of the tickets or another one would be (and more interesting) distributing tickets in schools, sports center, etc. ..Maybe young people could go to the stadiums and get a development and promotion of football ... It could be worth to try, couldn't be?You can check the details at: http://www.veikkausliiga.fi/Statistic.aspx?id=6
